Thanks for your message Matthieu I agree that would give me a build but I'd rather have Numpy and Scipy source codesets each in their own workspaces so that as we try to port across to PharLap we have full visibility.
I wonder if anyone has done similar in visual studio 2003 or higher? I'm running vs2005 for the rest of my work but the initial requirement for this Python work is that we use visual studio 6. Looks like I'm doomed!
